ChosenOne Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 Kobe Bryant was asked on Saturday about Pau Gasol's future with the Lakers. "As long as I'm there, he's going to be there," said Bryant. Gasol was acquired by the Lakers in 2008. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenneral Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 Interesting... I like that Kobe came out and said that. Hopefully it allows Gasol to settle in and become a more consistent player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemon Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 Hard to understand the message without the context, but I'm assuming he's just stating the obvious. It's way more obvious now than before that the front office is keeping Pau to play along with Kobe for as long as they are contending. There's no way he would say this back when Pau's presence as a Laker was in limbo. If anything, it reinforces Kobe's statement of retirement in two years.
